The loneliest chimp(黑猩猩)in the world just got the best surprise—a hug from a new friend．Ponso has been by himself for nearly three years，finding himself alone after his wife and children died on the island where they were abandoned by a medical testing company many years ago．
For years a nearby villager named Germain has been Ponso’s only company，visiting him so often to bring bananas and bread—the chimp’s only source of food on the tiny island．It was clear how much Ponso missed companionship when he was recently visited by Chimpanzee Conservation Centre Director Estelle Raballand．The chimp immediately embraced Estelle Raballand in a huge hug and laughed as she reached out for him，with his smile from ear to ear．
For those who know Ponso’s backstory，his immediate ease and trust in humans might be surprising．Ponso was one of 20 chimps，all between the ages of 7 to 11 years old，relocated to an island off the Ivory Coast after being used for testing by the New York Blood Centre．After the tests were completed in 2005，the lab reportedly transferred the chimps to a string of islands，occasionally dropping off food and water because there was none in the chimps’ new homes．
Disease and hunger soon left only Ponso，his mate and their two children standing．But at the end of 2013 they died within days of each other and Ponso was now completely alone．
A group called SOS PONSO is trying to raise money for the poor lonely chimp，already achieving its goal of $20，000—all of which will be used for Ponso’s care．
1.What do we know about the chimp Ponso?
A．He was deserted by his family．
B．He found many sources of food．
C．He came to the island for a test．
D．He suffers from loneliness greatly．
2.How did Ponso feel about the visit of Estelle Raballand?
A．Excited． B．Frightened．
C．Embarrassed． D．Confused.
3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．The chimps’ new settlement．
B．How Ponso came to the island．
C．Why Ponso was used for a test．
D．The medical test about chimps．
4.What can be inferred from the text?
A．Germain won’t visit Ponso any more．
B．A new lab will be built on the island．
C．Many people show concern for Ponso．
D．More chimps will be brought to the island．

Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient — no matter where he or she may be.
Online doctors offering advice based on normal symptoms(症状) are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis(远程诊断) will be based on real physiological data(生理数据) from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly practical to send a patient’s important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.
Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural （countryside） care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need — especially after earthquakes. On the whole, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts’opinions.
But there is one problem. Bandwidth(宽带) is the limiting factor for sending complex (复杂) medical pictures around the world, —CT photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites may be able to deal with the short-term needs during disasters such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.
Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, experts’ opinions and diagnosis are common.
1.The writer chiefly talks about ________.
A. the use of telemedicine
B. the on-lined doctors
C. medical care and treatment
D. communication improvement
2.Which of the following statements is true according to the text?
A. Patients don’t need doctors in hospitals any more.
B. It is impossible to send a patient’s signs over the telephone.
C. Many teams use telemedicine dealing with disasters now.
D. Broadband communications will become cheaper in the future.
3.The“problem”in the fourth paragraph refers to the fact that ________.
A. bandwidth isn’t big enough to send complex medical pictures
B. the second - generation of Internet has not become popular yet
C. communication satellites can only deal with short - term needs
D. there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care

According to a survey, only 4% of the people in the world are left-handed. Why? One theory centers on the two halves of the brain. For example, the left half and the right half, each of which functions differently. Medical science believes that the left half of the brain dominates over the right half. The foundation of this theory is the fact that nerves from the brain cross over at neck-level to the opposite side of the body, and nerves from the other side of the brain reciprocate (互换). The end result is that the opposite sides of the body are controlled by the opposite sides of the brain.
The dominant left half of the brain, which kindly supplies the right half of the body, theoretically makes it more skillful in reading, writing, speaking, and working, and makes most people right-handed. Lefties, however, whose right half of the brain dominates, work best with the left side of their bodies.
Theory number two focuses on the asymmetrical nature of the body. Examples of the asymmetry, which flows from head to toe, are that the right side of our faces differs slightly from the left, that our legs differ in strength, or that our feet vary in size. One aspect of this asymmetry is that for most people the right hand is stronger than the left.
There is no doubt that all exist in a “right-handed society”, which produces most basics, including scissors, doorknobs, locks, screwdrivers, automobiles, buttons on clothing, and musical instruments for the 96%. Left-handed people make up for the unfairness by being members of an elite (精英) society, which includes many of the greatest geniuses, including Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci.
1.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Left-handed people are better at speaking
B. Left-handed people are believed to have stronger left halves of the brains
C. Right-handed people are cleverer than left-handed people
D. Right-handed people work best with the right side of their bodies
2.Which of the words or phrases is closest in meaning to the word “asymmetrical”?
A. valuable B. not typical
C. not balanced D. negative
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Left-handed people may feel inconvenient in this right-handed society
B. This is an equal society for the left-handed people
C. Most great geniuses are left-handed
D. Left-handed people are considered to be disabled
4. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Which proves to be the better way to live, right-handed or left-handed?
B. How do left-handed people differ from right-handed ones?
C. Why are some people left-handed?
D. Are left-handed people equally treated in society?

Soft winds blew throughout the Windy City today. We welcomed the winds, as it was another hot day in Chicago. The wind blew, bringing us some coolness and making the weather not that hot. But it was a beautiful summer day with a blue sky.
Chicago is a great city for eating, and we have enjoyed tasting the different foods. Last night, we tried one of the city's most famous foods: deep-dish pizza. Chicago claims credit for the rich and cheesy thick-crust pizza, covered with a sweet tomato sauce. We topped it with olives and green peppers.
We were touring the city, mainly looking for delicious local foods. Today, we enjoyed a Polish specialty at lunch: Pierogis, an Eastern European dumpling-like dish, filled with foods like potatoes, cheese, mushrooms, cabbage and meat. Polish immigrants started settling in Chicago in the 1850s, and the city has one of the largest Polish communities in the U.S.
We took a break from exploring the city to talk with some of you! Ashley and Caty logged onto the Internet for an on-the-road version of TALK2US. We spoke to an English teacher in Tokyo, Japan, and a graduate student in India.
Meanwhile, Adam searched for some locations around the city to shoot some video. He chose a spectacular spot: Navy Pier, Chicago's most-visited attraction. The winds from Lake Michigan keep visitors cool, and the view of the Chicago skyline never fails to impress. In fact, the view made all of us head over heels!
Our time in Chicago has come to an end. Tomorrow, the true journey begins, as we pass through Illinois and into Missouri via Route 66. Springfield, the home of Abe Lincoln, and St. Louis, the "gateway to the West," wait for us.
1.Why did the author and her companions like the soft winds?
A. It brought warmth to them.
B. It made them feel comfortable.
C. It improved the quality of the air.
D. It left the sky blue and beautiful.
2. What did the author and her companions mainly do in Chicago?
A. They explored for foreign customs.
B. They visited Polish communities.
C. They studied the history of the city.
D. They enjoyed famous local foods.
3.The author and her companions stayed online ________.
A. communicating with strangers abroad
B. asking for information on foreign foods
C. sharing their travel plan with strangers
D. learning about different cultures in the world
4.The underlined part “head over heels” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by ________.
A. boredB. relaxedC. FascinatedD. Disappointed
